Make Noise MultiMod: One Signal, Eightfold Mayhem in Eurorack

Make Noise, the Asheville-based champions of modular mischief, have unleashed the MultiMod—a module that promises to multiply your modulation possibilities from a single control signal. In their typically exploratory style, Make Noise demonstrates how MultiMod doesn’t just copy your CV, but transforms it into a flock of related signals, each with its own phase and speed. This video walks through the module’s core parameters, creative read shapes, and the philosophy behind its design, all while hinting at the untapped sonic territory it opens up. If you’re after new modulation tricks and crave more from your patch points, MultiMod might just

Make Noise SpectraNoise Update: James Cigler Unleashes Chaos and Noise on the Spectrophone

Make Noise, the Asheville-based champions of modular mischief, have dropped a fresh update for the Spectrophone, and James Cigler is here to show us what the new SpectraNoise modes can do. In this official walkthrough, Cigler explores both the chaos and noise modes, revealing their potential as sound generators and complex modulators. Expect sine waves colliding, feedback paths spiralling into noise, and a patching approach that’s as much about sculpting texture as it is about traditional synthesis. If you’re after new ways to inject unpredictability and character into your Eurorack, this video is a must-watch.

MAKEN0ISE Spectral DRUM MACHINE: Resynthesizing Percussion with Morphagene and Spectraphon

Make Noise, the Asheville-based modular mavericks, return with a spectral twist on drum synthesis. In this video, the official MAKEN0ISE channel demonstrates how to craft transients, drums, and percussive textures using the Spectraphon and Morphagene, with a healthy dose of creative signal routing and resynthesis. The process is less about recreating 808s and more about sculpting otherworldly, machine-interpreted hits—perfect for those who prefer their percussion with a side of spectral weirdness. Expect aggressive textures, clever modulation, and a workflow that encourages experimentation over convention.

Spectral Ratcheting and Rhythmic Memory: Make Noise’s ReSynthesizer in Action

Make Noise returns to their signature world of spectral experimentation, this time delving into the ReSynthesizer’s knack for rhythmic invention. In this official walkthrough, the channel demonstrates how the Spectraphon module can inscribe, recall, and manipulate rhythmic arrays—transforming simple pulses into evolving, ratcheting textures. With a focus on modulation, memory, and hands-on control, the video offers a patch-oriented look at how spectral tools can reshape sequencing and performance. If you’re curious about how spectral arrays and modulation curves can unlock new rhythmic possibilities in a Eurorack setup, this is a deep dive worth your attention.

Make Noise Spectraphon: Reimagining Resynthesis in Eurorack

Make Noise, the Asheville-based champions of modular experimentation, take us on a deep dive into the Spectraphon—a resynthesizer module that promises to redefine how we sculpt and manipulate sound in Eurorack. In this inaugural ‘ReSynthesizer Patch of the Week,’ the Make Noise team unpacks the Spectraphon’s unique approach to resynthesis, contrasting it with their Morphagene and highlighting the creative possibilities unlocked by spectral amplitude modulation. Expect a patch-oriented exploration brimming with harmonic sleights of hand, filtering tricks, and a workflow that invites both precision and happy accidents.

Make Noise Spectraphon Firmware Update: Linear Arrays and Spectral Adventures

Make Noise, the Asheville-based modular mavericks, are back with a firmware update for their Spectraphon resynthesizer, and it’s not just a bug fix. This release introduces linear array modulation to the Spectral Array Oscillation (SAO) mode, giving patchers a new way to traverse and manipulate spectral arrays. Alongside this, Make Noise has added a ramp LFO shape for sub-CV outputs and extended the minimum clock rate for LFOs, opening up slower, evolving modulations. The focus control also gets a new lease on life, now shaping spectral compression and expansion for even more nuanced timbral sculpting. True to Make Noise’s exploratory

Make Noise ReSynthesizer: A Modular Blackboard for Sonic Reinvention

Make Noise, the Asheville-based champions of modular experimentation, unveil the ReSynthesizer—a 7U system that’s less a fixed instrument and more a sonic blackboard for the adventurous. Drawing from eight years of module design, this system pairs the spectral wizardry of Spectraphon with the granular prowess of Morphagene, all underpinned by a robust CV generation suite. In typical Make Noise fashion, the video walks through the instrument’s conceptual roots, its patching philosophy, and a series of encounters with traditional instruments at Drop of Sun Studios. The ReSynthesizer isn’t just a collection of modules—it’s a platform for reimagining sound, inviting users to

Make Noise Bruxa: A Patchable Pathogen in the Modular Ecosystem

Make Noise returns to its roots of sonic experimentation with the Bruxa, a module that channels the heart of the Strega into Eurorack form. In this video, James Cigler demonstrates how Bruxa is far more than a lo-fi delay: it’s a shapeshifting sound manipulator that thrives on creative patching and modulation. From smeared arpeggios to howling feedback and rhythmic destabilisation, Bruxa’s filtering and feedback architecture invite the adventurous to sculpt textures that mutate and evolve. If you’re after a module that rewards hands-on exploration and patching outside the box, this Make Noise walkthrough is a must-watch.

MAKEN0ISE: Oscillators as Modulators – Phase Shaving for the Adventurous Patchhead

What if, instead of simply layering slightly detuned oscillators, you turned them loose as modulators for one another? In this latest video from MAKEN0ISE, the Asheville-based champions of experimental Eurorack, we’re treated to a deep dive into phase relationships, detuning, and the peculiar magic that happens when oscillators interact in less-than-obvious ways. The patch on show doesn’t just sum signals—it explores how phase drift and subtle tuning shifts can carve out new sonic terrain, with a healthy dose of frequency modulation and feedback thrown in for good measure.
